The Schedule xefen'e to in these Letters Patent n making part of thelama,

To all whom 'lt may come-m:

Be it known that I, N. R. HELIKER, of Norwalk, in the county of Huron,State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inChurn-Dasher; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full andcomplete description of the same, reference being,Y had to theaccompanyingz,r drawing,.'1naking a part of this specification, inwhich- Figure l is a side view of the dasher.

Figure 2, a view of the under side.

Figur'e 3, a view of the top.

Like letters of reference refer to like parts in the several views.

The nature of this invention relates to a churndasher, consist-ing oftwo pairs of radial arms, to Which are attached eonccntric circles orcoils of Wire, said dasher being an improvement of a former inventionfor which Letters Patent were granted to me.

In fig. 1, A is the handle of the dasher, to which are attached theradial arms B O. Said arms are arranged on the handle, one above theother, so that a considerable space is open between them, as shown inthe drawing.

To one side of each set of arms are secured circles of wire, I), eitheras a series: of concentric circles, or a single piece coiled, as shownin fig. 2. p

My former dasher, referred to, consisted of but one' cross or pair ofrad'ial arms, to each side of which the circles of wires were attachedin the same manner as those now under consideration.

The objection to that dasher is, thecircles of wire. In consequence ofbeing placed so close to each other, (the thickness of the arms onlyfrom each otl1er,) the butter and thick cream, on churning, lodgebetween Vfore of little or no value.

them, ther'eby clogging the dasher and obstructing the cream frompassing between the coils; hence the dasher -becomes hard to work, andif the cream and butter are quite solid, the dasher cannot be used, andis there- But by' the use. of two sets of arms arrangcd on the handle,apart from each other, as. shown in fig. 1, this difficulty is avoided,as the larger' space between the arms allows ample room for the passageof the butter and cream; hence there is no clogging of the dasher, butit will work freely and easily in the cream.

Another objection to the dasher is, that the limited space between thetwo sets of wires prevents the hand from being introducedbetween themfor the purpose of cleaning lt; hence some trouble is experieued inremoving all the cream` and particles of butter that may adhere to thedasher. :In the dasher as improved, this diificulty isobviated, as thewide space gives snfiiicient room for the hand to be introduced`;.therefore less trouble is found in cleaning it.

With this dasher the cream is more thoroughly agitated, and with greaterviolence, than it can be with the old one; there-fore'the work ofchurning is done in a s'horter time and with less lahor.

What I claim as my invention, and' desire to Secure by Letters Patent,is-- A dasher, When constructed with two pairs of radial arms, B G,arranged in relation to each other,'and in combination with the Wires D,substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
